Just run Apache JMeter against three selected pages.

1) Regular XML->XSL->Serializer combination "/welcome"
2) XSP->Aggregation->XSL->Serializer combination "/news/aggregate.xsp"
3) Database backed page (make sure you have enough connections specified)

Run JMeter so that the requests are 500ms apart with 500ms deviation
and 12 threads running (meaning, you need at least 12 DB connections).
This represents a constant load on the server totalling roughly
2 million page loads in a 24 hour period.

The DataSources use a Hard Resource Limitting pool, and throws an exception
when it runs out of instances.  We may have to alter that to a blocking
pool, but my fear in that is that we will hit deadlock quickly.  If someone
wants to donate a code sample that provides a timeout and blocks the
thread, then I am willing to use it....
